I bought this microwave because of its very small size. It seems to work good although the keypad takes a heavy touch. It has all the features that you need, but be aware, it is small.

To put it simply - this is a great little microwave that does every thing I need it to do - plus it is very easy to use even for a technologically challenged person like me. Yes, it is small, but it easily accommodates my full size Villeroy and Boch dinner plates. When using it to make popcorn in my Nordic Ware 12 cup popcorn popper, I set it for 4.5 minutes rather than using the automatic setting, and it is perfect every time. From reheating dinners to cooking frozen vegetables to baking yams - this little gem delivers, and it takes up very little space. It is sturdy, quiet, and easy on the eye. I couldn't ask for anything more.

The Cuisinart small microwave oven is just too small for anyone but a college student with limited space. It is not intuitive in its functions and makes alot of noise. It seems somewhat flimsy (cheap)compared to other Cuisinart products.

I got this microwave over two years ago on sale at Belk's. I had a huge microwave that was an over the stove microwave that I was using on the counter and it was just too bulky so my mother found a great sale and bought this one for me. I basically got it for free and I hate it along w/ the rest of my family. You can barely fit a full size dinner plate in it so even warming up a large plate of food is difficult. The size however is not what bothers me about this unit. It just does not heat anything very well. I can't even make a bag of popcorn because it will ruin it. Less than half the bag will pop and then the part that does pop is burnt. It takes about 5 minutes to pop even half the bag of popcorn. Don't waste your money I got it for free and will be replacing it as soon as I can spare the money.
